Abstract: In a process for manufacturing toothed belts of any length, a tubular sleeve comprising a layer of cords (1) and at least a layer of elastomeric material (2) is preformed in an autoclave without being vulcanized so as to produce, on the inner surface thereof, a plurality of hollows (5) spaced apart from one another according to a predetermined toothing pitch (P). The sleeve is helically cut to obtain a continuous strip (7) to be subsequently wrapped over two wrapping drums (8, 9) suitably spaced apart from each other depending on the circumferential extension to be given to the belt. The obtained annular element (10), when the wrapping has been completed, is trued up by means of the provided hollows, between a moulding matrix (11) and opposite mould (12) and is submitted to a pressing step and simultaneous cross-linking of the elastomeric material (2) by its being closed according to stages in succession, between the moulding matrix (11) and opposite mould (12) designed to be moved close to each other. Thus the complete formation of the teeth (3) on the inner side of the belt being worked occurs, as well as the firm bonding of the continuous loops (10a) formed by wrapping of the continuous strip (7).

Abstract: A loudspeaker construction is disclosed in which a conical diaphragm (15) is caused to generate and radiate sound by means of interaction between a drive coil on a coil former (24) secured to the neck of the diaphragm and a magnet assembly (14) secured to a chassis (10) of the loudspeaker. Electrical energisation of the drive coil produces a drive force acting on the drive coil to move the diaphragm. In order to reduce or prevent radiation of sound from a front ring (11) of the chassis and from a baffle board on which the chassis is mounted arising from reaction to the drive force acting on the magnet assembly, the magnet assembly is mechanically isolated or de-coupled from the chassis. This is accomplished by securing the magnet assembly to the chassis by means of resilient mountings (41) to reduce or prevent transmission of reaction force from the magnet assembly to the chassis.

Abstract: A cryogenic valve that uses conventional materials in unusual ways to achieve very low leak, excellent strength, pressure or vacuum integrity and modest manufacturing cost. Heat leak rates on the order of 0.5 watt have been obtained in a 1.5 inch (about 38 mm) valve. Such performance is made possible by the unique structure of the valve stem, of the bonnet extension, and of certain insulative spacers. The valve stem consists of a thin wall tube of wound glass filaments in an epoxy matrix. The bonnet extension consists of a thin wall stainless steel bellows wound with glass fibers in an epoxy matrix. The insulative spacers have a shape that results in a long tortuous conduction path when they are stacked inside the valve stem and in the space between the valve stem and the bonnet extension.

Lorsque l'angle de direction reste constant, aucune pression ne règne dans le conduit A, et la soupape F est fermée, de sorte que les efforts éventuels tendant à solliciter la direction d'un côté ou de l'autre sont contrés par les soupapes unidirectionnelles sur le conduit A et par la soupape de surpression fermée F. Les soupapes de dérivation C et D sont agencées pour s'ouvrir de sorte que, dans le cas par exemple où un choc accidentel aurait augmenté la pression dans l'un des deux conduits, la soupape de surpression appropriée s'ouvre, protégeant ainsi le circuit contre tout endommagement.
